FIELD OF THE INVENTION

This invention relates generally to modulators of chemokine receptoractivity, pharmaceutical compositions containing the same, and methodsof using the same as agents for treatment and prevention of inflammatorydiseases such as asthma and allergic diseases, as well as autoimmunepathologies such as rheumatoid arthritis and atherosclerosis.

BACKGROUND OF THE INVENTION

Chemokines are chemotactic cytokines, of molecular weight 6-15 kDa, thatare released by a wide variety of cells to attract and activate, amongother cell types, macrophages, T and B lymphocytes, eosinophils,basophils and neutrophils (reviewed in Luster, New Eng. J Med., 338,436-445 (1998) and Rollins, Blood, 90, 909-928 (1997)). There are twomajor classes of chemokines, CXC and CC, depending on whether the firsttwo cysteines in the amino acid sequence are separated by a single aminoacid (CXC) or are adjacent (CC). The CXC chemokines, such asinterleukin-8 (IL-8), neutrophil-activating protein-2 (NAP-2) andmelanoma growth stimulatory activity protein (MGSA) are chemotacticprimarily for neutrophils and T lymphocytes, whereas the CC chemokines,such as RANTES, MIP-1α, MIP-1β, the monocyte chemotactic proteins(MCP-1, MCP-2, MCP-3, MCP-4, and MCP-5) and the eotaxins (-1, -2, and-3) are chemotactic for, among other cell types, macrophages, Tlymphocytes, eosinophils, dendritic cells, and basophils. There alsoexist the chemokines lymphotactin-1, lymphotactin-2 (both C chemokines),and fractalkine (a CXXXC chemokine) that do not fall into either of themajor chemokine subfamilies.

The chemokines bind to specific cell-surface receptors belonging to thefamily of G-protein-coupled seven-transmembrane-domain proteins(reviewed in Horuk, Trends Pharm. Sci., 15, 159-165 (1994)) which aretermed “chemokine receptors.” On binding their cognate ligands,chemokine receptors transduce an intracellular signal through theassociated trimeric G proteins, resulting in, among other responses, arapid increase in intracellular calcium concentration, changes in cellshape, increased expression of cellular adhesion molecules,degranulation, and promotion of cell migration. There are at least tenhuman chemokine receptors that bind or respond to CC chemokines with thefollowing characteristic patterns: CCR-1 (or “CKR-1” or “CC-CKR-1”)[MIP-1α, MCP-3, MCP-4, RANTES] (Ben-Barruch, et al., Cell, 72, 415-425(1993), Luster, New Eng. J. Med., 338, 436-445 (1998)); CCR-2A andCCR-2B (or “CKR-2A”/“CKR-2B” or “CC-CKR-2A”/“CC-CKR-2B”) [MCP-1, MCP-2,MCP-3, MCP-4, MCP-5] (Charo et al., Proc. Natl. Acad. Sci. USA, 91,2752-2756 (1994), Luster, New Eng. J. Med., 338, 436-445 (1998)); CCR-3(or “CKR-3” or “CC-CKR-3”) [eotaxin-1, eotaxin-2, RANTES, MCP-3, MCP-4](Combadiere, et al., J. Biol. Chem., 270, 16491-16494 (1995), Luster,New Eng. J. Med., 338, 436-445 (1998)); CCR-4 (or “CKR-4” or “CC-CKR-4”)[TARC, MIP-1α, RANTES, MCP-1] (Power et al., J. Biol. Chem., 270,19495-19500 (1995), Luster, New Eng. J. Med., 338, 436-445 (1998));CCR-5 (or “CKR-5” OR “CC-CKR-5”) [MIP-1α, RANTES, MIP-1β] (Sanson, etal., Biochemistry, 35, 3362-3367 (1996)); CCR-6 (or “CKR-6” or“CC-CKR-6”) [LARC] (Baba et al., J. Biol. Chem., 272, 14893-14898(1997)); CCR-7 (or “CKR-7” or “CC-CKR-7”) [ELC] (Yoshie et al., J.Leukoc. Biol. 62, 634-644 (1997)); CCR-8 (or “CKR-8” or, “CC-CKR-8”)[I-309, TARC, MIP-1β] (Napolitano et al., J. Immunol., 157, 2759-2763(1996), Bernardini et al., Eur. J. Immunol., 28, 582-588 (1998)); andCCR-10 (or “CKR-10” or “CC-CKR-10”) [MCP-1, MCP-3] (Bonini et al, DNAand Cell Biol., 16, 1249-1256 (1997)).

In addition to the mammalian chemokine receptors, mammaliancytomegaloviruses, herpesviruses and poxviruses have been shown toexpress, in infected cells, proteins with the binding properties ofchemokine receptors (reviewed by Wells and Schwartz, Curr. Opin.Biotech., 8, 741-748 (1997)). Human CC chemokines, such as RANTES andMCP-3, can cause rapid mobilization of calcium via these virally encodedreceptors. Receptor expression may be permissive for infection byallowing for the subversion of normal immune system surveillance andresponse to infection. Additionally, human chemokine receptors, such asCXCR4, CCR2, CCR3, CCR5 and CCR8, can act as co-receptors for theinfection of mammalian cells by microbes as with, for example, the humanimmunodeficiency viruses (HIV).

Chemokine receptors have been implicated as being important mediators ofinflammatory, infectious, and immunoregulatory disorders and diseases,including asthma and allergic diseases, as well as autoimmunepathologies such as rheumatoid arthritis and atherosclerosis. Forexample, the chemokine receptor CCR-3 plays a pivotal role in attractingeosinophils to sites of allergic inflammation and in subsequentlyactivating these cells. The chemokine ligands for CCR-3 induce a rapidincrease in intracellular calcium concentration, increased expression ofcellular adhesion molecules, cellular degranulation, and the promotionof eosinophil migration. Accordingly, agents which modulate chemokinereceptors would be useful in such disorders and diseases. In addition,agents which modulate chemokine receptors would also be useful ininfectious diseases such as by blocking infection of CCR3 expressingcells by HIV or in preventing the manipulation of immune cellularresponses by viruses such as cytomegaloviruses.

A substantial body of art has accumulated over the past several decadeswith respect to substituted piperidines and pyrrolidines. Thesecompounds have implicated in the treatment of a variety of disorders.

WO 98/25604 describes spiro-substituted azacycles which are useful asmodulators of chemokine receptors:

wherein R₁ is C₁₋₆ alkyl, optionally substituted with functional groupssuch as —NR⁶CONHR⁷, wherein R⁶ and R⁷ may be phenyl further substitutedwith hydroxy, alkyl, cyano, halo and haloalkyl. Such Spiro compounds arenot considered part of the present invention.

WO 95/13069 is directed to certain piperidine, pyrrolidine, andhexahydro-1H-azepine compounds of general formula:

wherein A may be substituted alkyl or Z-substituted alkyl, withZ=NR_(6a) or O. Compounds of this type are claimed to promote therelease of growth hormone in humans and animals.

WO 93/06108 discloses pyrrolobenzoxazine derivatives as5-hydroxytryptamine (5-HT) agonists and antagonists:

wherein A is lower alkylene and R⁴ may be phenyl optionally substitutedwith halogen.

U.S. Pat. No. 5,668,151 discloses Neuropeptide Y (NPY) antagonistscomprising 1,4-dihydropyridines with a piperidinyl ortetrahydropyridinyl-containing moiety attached to the 3-position of the4-phenyl ring:

wherein B may be NH, NR¹, O, or a bond, and R⁷ may be substitutedphenyl, benzyl, phenethyl and the like.

These reference compounds are readily distinguished structurally byeither the nature of the urea functionality, the attachment chain, orthe possible substitution of the present invention. The prior art doesnot disclose nor suggest the unique combination of structural fragmentswhich embody these novel piperidines and pyrrolidines as having activitytoward the chemokine receptors.

The term “substituted,” as used herein, means that any one or morehydrogens on the designated atom is replaced with a selection from theindicated group, provided that the designated atom's normal valency isnot exceeded, and that the substitution results in a stable compound.When a substitent is keto (i.e., ═O), then 2 hydrogens on the atom arereplaced.

When any variable (e.g., R^(a)) occurs more than one time in anyconstituent or formula for a compound, its definition at each occurrenceis independent of its definition at every other occurrence. Thus, forexample, if a group is shown to be substituted with 0-2 R^(a), then saidgroup may optionally be substituted with up to two R^(a) groups andR^(a) at each occurrence is selected independently from the definitionof R^(a). Also, combinations of substituents and/or variables arepermissible only if such combinations result in stable compounds.

When a bond to a substituent is shown to cross a bond connecting twoatoms in a ring, then such substituent may be bonded to any atom on thering. When a substituent is listed without indicating the atom via whichsuch substituent is bonded to the rest of the compound of a givenformula, then such substituent may be bonded via any atom in suchsubstituent. Combinations of substituents and/or variables arepermissible only if such combinations result in stable compounds.

Synthesis

The compounds of Formula I can be prepared using the reactions andtechniques described below. The reactions are performed in a solventappropriate to the reagents and materials employed and suitable for thetransformations being effected. It will be understood by those skilledin the art of organic synthesis that the functionality present on themolecule should be consistent with the transformations proposed. Thiswill sometimes require a judgment to modify the order of the syntheticsteps or to select one particular process scheme over another in orderto obtain a desired compound of the invention. It will also berecognized that another major consideration in the planning of anysynthetic route in this field is the judicious choice of the protectinggroup used for protection of the reactive functional groups present inthe compounds described in this invention. An authoritative accountdescribing the many alternatives to the trained practitioner is Greeneand Wuts (Protective Groups In Organic Synthesis, Wiley and Sons, 1991).

Generally, compounds described in the scope of this patent applicationcan be synthesized by the route described in Scheme 1. The appropriatelysubstituted pyrrolidine (n=0) or piperidine (n=l) 1 is alkylated by aN-protected alkylhalide (halide=Cl, Br, I), mesylate, tosylate ortriflate, 2, (where E represents a linkage described within the scope ofthis application in its fully elaborated form with the appropriateprotecting groups as understood by one skilled in the art or in aprecursor form which can be later elaborated into its final form bymethods familiar to one skilled in the art) with or without base or anacid scavenger to yield the piperidinyl- or pyrrolidinylalkyl protectedamine 3. If the halide is not I, then KI can also be added to facilitatethe displacement, provided the solvent is suitable, such as an alcohol,2-butanone, DMF or DMSO, amongst others. The displacement can beperformed at room temperature to the reflux temperature of the solvent.The protecting group is subsequently removed to yield amine 4.Protecting groups include phthalimide which can be removed by hydrazine,a reaction familiar to one skilled in the art; bis-BOC which can beremoved by either TFA or HCl dissolved in a suitable solvent, bothprocedures being familiar to one skilled in the art; a nitro groupinstead of an amine which can be reduced to yield an amine by conditionsfamiliar to one skilled in the art; 2,4-dimethyl pyrrole (S. P.Breukelman, et al. J. Chem. Soc. Perkin Trans. I, 1984, 2801);N-1,1,4,4-Tetramethyl-disilylazacyclopentane (STABASE) (S. Djuric, J.Venit, and P. Magnus Tet. Lett 1981, 22, 1787) and other protectinggroups. Reaction with an isocyanate or isothiocyanate 5 (Z=O,S) yieldsurea or thiourea 6. Reaction with a chloroformate or chlorothioformate 7(Z=O,S) such as o-, p-nitrophenyl-chloroformate or phenylchloroformate(or their thiocarbonyl equivalents), followed by diplacement with anamine 9, also yields the corresponding urea or thiourea 6. Likewise,reaction of carbamate 8 (X=H, or 2- or 4-NO2) with disubstituted amine10 yields trisubstituted urea or thiourea 12. Reaction of the amine 4with an N,N-disubstituted carbamoyl chloride 11 (or its thiocarbonylequivalent) yields the corresponding N,N-disubstituted urea or thiourea12. Amine 4 can also be reductively aminated to yield 13 by conditionsfamiliar to one skilled in the art and by the following conditions:Abdel-Magid, A. F., et al. Tet. Lett. 1990, 31, (39) 5595-5598. Thissecondary amine can subsequently be reacted with isocyanates orisothiocyanates to yield trisubstituted ureas 14 or with carbamoylchlorides to yield tetrasubstituted ureas 15.

One can also convert amine 4 into an isocyanate, isothiocyanate,carbamoyl chloride or its thiocarbonyl equivalent (isocyanate:Nowakowski, J. J Prakt. Chem/Chem-Ztg 1996, 338 (7), 667-671; Knoelker,H.-J. et al., Angew. Chem. 1995, 107 (22), 2746-2749; Nowick, J. S. etal., J. Org. Chem. 1996, 61 (11), 3929-3934; Staab, H. A.; Benz, W.;Angew Chem 1961, 73; isothiocyanate: Strekowski L. et al., J.Heterocycl. Chem. 1996, 33 (6), 1685-1688; Kutschy, Pet al., Synlett.1997, (3), 289-290) carbamoyl chloride: Hintze, F.; Hoppe, D.; Synthesis(1992) 12, 1216-1218; thiocarbamoyl chloride: Ried, W.; Hillenbrand, H.;Oertel, G.; Justus Liebigs Ann Chem 1954, 590) (these reactions are notshown in Scheme 1). These isocyanates, isothiocyantes, carbamoylchlorides or thiocarbamoyl chlorides can then be reacted with R²R³NH toyield di- or trisubstituted ureas or thioureas 12. An additional ureaforming reaction involves the reaction of carbonyldiimidazole (CDI)(Romine, J. L.; Martin, S. W.; Meanwell, N. A.; Epperson, J. R.;Synthesis 1994 (8), 846-850) with 4 followed by reaction of theintermediate imidazolide with 9 or in the reversed sequence (9+CDI,followed by 4). Activation of imidazolide intermediates also facilitatesurea formation (Bailey, R. A., et al., Tet. Lett. 1998, 39, 6267-6270).One can also use 13 and 10 with CDI. The urea forming reactions are donein a non-hydroxylic inert solvent such as THF, toluene, DMF, etc., atroom temperature to the reflux temperature of the solvent and can employthe use of an acid scavenger or base when necessary such as carbonateand bicarbonate salts, triethylamine, DBU, Hunigs base, DMAP, etc.

Substituted pyrrolidines and piperidines 1 can either be obtainedcommercially or be prepared as shown in Scheme 2. Commercially availableN-benzylpiperid-3-one 16 can be debenzylated and protected with a BOCgroup employing reactions familiar to one skilled in the art. SubsequentWittig reaction followed by reduction and deprotection yields piperidine20 employing reactions familiar to one skilled in the art. Substitutedpyrrolidines may be made by a similar reaction sequence. Other isomersand analogs around the piperidine ring can also be made by a similarreaction sequence. Chiral pyrrolidines/piperidines can be synthesizedvia asymmetric hydrogenation of 18 using chiral catalysts (see Parshall,G. W. Homogeneous Catalysis, John Wiley and Sons, New York: 1980, pp.43-45; Collman, J. P., Hegedus, L. S. Principles and Applications ofOrganotransition Metal Chemistry, University Science Books, Mill Valley,Calif., 1980, pp. 341-348).

The cyanoguanidines (Z=N—CN) can be synthesized by the method of K. S.Atwal, et al. and references contained therein (J. Med. Chem. (1998) 41,217-275). The F: nitroethylene analog (Z=C—NO2) can be synthesized bythe method of F. Moimas, et al. (Synthesis 1985, 509-510) and referencescontained therein. The malononitrile analog (Z=C(CN)2) may besynthesized by the method of S. Sasho, et al. (J. Med. Chem. 1993, 36,572-579).

Guanidines (Z=NR^(1a)) can be synthesized by the methods outlined inScheme 3. Compound 21 where Z=S can be methylated to yield themethylisothiourea 22. Displacement of the SMe group with amines yieldssubstituted guanidines 23 (see H. King and I. M. Tonkin J. Chem. Soc.1946, 1063 and references therein). Alternatively, reaction of thiourea21 with amines in the presence of triethanolamine and “lac sulfur” whichfacilitates the removal of H₂S yields substituted guanidines 23 (K.Ramadas, Tet. Lett. 1996, 37, 5161 and references therein). Finally, theuse of carbonimidoyldichloride 24, or 25 followed by sequentialdisplacements by amines yields the corresponding substituted guanidine23 (S. Nagarajan, et al., Syn. Comm. 1992, 22, 1191-8 and referencestherein). In a similar manner, carbonimidoyldichlorides, R²—N═C(Cl)₂(not shown in Scheme 3) and R³—N═C(Cl)₂ (not shown) can also be reactedsequentially with amines to yield di- and trisubstituted guanidine 23.

A method for introducing substituents in linkage E is that of A. Chesneyet al. (Syn. Comm. 1990, 20 (20), 3167-3180) as shown in Scheme 4.Michael reaction of pyrrolidine or piperidine 1 with Michael acceptor 26yields intermediate 27 which can undergo subsequent reactions in thesame pot. For example, reduction yields alcohol 28 which can beelaborated to the amine 29 by standard procedures familiar to oneskilled in the art. Some of these include mesylation or tosylationfollowed by displacement with NaN₃ followed by reduction to yield amine29. Another route as depicted in Scheme 4 involves reaction withdiphenylphosphoryl azide followed by reduction of the azide to yieldamine 29.

The mesylate or tosylate can also be displaced by other nucleophilessuch as NH₃, BOC₂N⁻, potassium phthalimide, etc., with subsequentdeprotection where necessary to yield amines 29. Finally, 29 can beconverted to urea or thiourea 30 by procedures discussed for Scheme 1 orto the compounds of this invention by procedures previously discussed.Similarly, aldehyde 27 may be reacted with a lithium or a Grignardreagent 31 to yield alcohol adduct 32. This in turn can be converted tourea or thiourea 34 in the same way as discussed for the conversion of28 to 30.

Scheme 5 shows that intermediate 36 can be extended via a Wittigreaction (A. Chesney, et al. Syn. Comm. 1990, 20 (20), 3167-3180) toyield 37. This adduct can be reduced catalytically to yield 38 or byother procedures familiar to one skilled in the art. Alkylation yields39, followed by saponification and Curtius rearrangement (T. L. Capsonand C. D. Poulter, Tet. Lett., (1984) 25, 3515-3518) followed byreduction of the benzyl protecting group yields amine 40 which can beelaborated further as was described earlier in Scheme 1 and elsewhere inthis application to make the compounds of this invention. Dialkyllithiumcuprate, organocopper, or copper-catalyzed Grignard addition (for areview, see G. H. Posner, “An Introduction to Synthesis UsingOrganocopper Reagents”, J. Wiley, New York, 1980; Organic Reactions, 19,1 (1972)) to alpha,beta-unsaturated ester 37 yields 41 which can undergosubsequent transformations just discussed to yield amine 43 which can beelaborated further to the compounds of this invention as was describedearlier. The intermediate enolate ion obtained upon cuprate addition to37 can also be trapped by an electrophile to yield 42 (for a review, seeR. J. K. Taylor, Synthesis 1985, 364). Likewise, another 2-carbonhomologation is reported by A. Chesney et al. (ibid.) on intermediate 36which involves reacting 36 with an enolate anion to yield aldolcondensation product 42 where R¹²═OH. The OH group can undergo synthetictransformations which are familiar to one skilled in the art and whichwill be discussed in much detail later on in the application. Chiralauxilliaries can also be used to introduce stereo- andenantioselectivity in these aldol condensations, procedures which arefamiliar to one skilled in the art.

Examples of such methods are taught in D. A. Evans, et al., J. Am. Chem.Soc. 1981, 103, 2127; D. A. Evans, J. Am. Chem. Soc. 1982, 104, 1737; D.A. Evans, J. Am. Chem. Soc. 1986, 108, 2476; D. A. Evans. et al., J. Am.Chem. Soc. 1986, 108, 6757; D. A. Evans, J. Am. Chem. Soc. 1986, 108,6395; D. A. Evans, J. Am. Chem. Soc. 1985, 107, 4346; A. G. Myers, etal., J. Am. Chem. Soc. 1997, 119, 6496. One can also perform anenantioselective alkylation on esters 38 or 41 with R¹²X where X is aleaving group as described in Scheme 1, provided the ester is firstattached to a chiral auxiliary (see above references of Evans, Myers andMauricio de L. Vanderlei, J. et al., Synth. Commum. 1998, 28, 3047).

One can also react alpha,beta-unsaturated ester 37 (Scheme 6) withCorey's dimethyloxosulfonium methylide (E. J. Corey and M. Chaykovsky,J. Am. Chem. Soc. 1965, 87, 1345) to form a cyclopropane which canundergo eventual Curtius rearrangement and subsequent elaboration to thecompounds of this invention wherein the carbon containing R⁹R¹⁰ is tiedup in a cyclopropane ring with the carbon containing R¹¹R¹². Inaddition, compound 48 can also undergo the analogous reactions justdescribed to form cyclopropylamine 50 which can be further elaboratedinto the compounds of this invention as described previously. Compound48 may be synthesized by an alkylation reaction ofpyrrolidine/piperidine 1 with bromide 47 in an inert solvent employingthe conditions as described for the alkylation of 2 onto 1 in Scheme 1.

Another way to synthesize the compounds in the scope of this applicationis shown in Scheme 7. Michael reaction of amine 1 with an acrylonitrile51 (as described by I. Roufos in J. Med. Chem. 1996, 39, 1514-1520)followed by Raney-Nickel hydrogenation yields amine 53 which can beelaborated to the compounds of this invention as previously described.

In Schemes 4,5, and 6, we see that there is no gem-substitution on thealpha-carbon to the electron-withdrawing group of what used to be theMichael acceptor. In other words, in Scheme 4, there is no R¹⁰ gem toR⁹; in Scheme 5, there is no R¹⁰ gem to one of the R⁹s and in Scheme 7there is no R¹⁰ gem to R⁹. Gem-substitution can be introduced byreacting pyrrolidine or piperidine 1 with the epoxide of Michaelacceptors 26, 35, and 51 to yield the corresponding alcohols (for aminesreacting with epoxides of Michael acceptors, see Charvillon, F. B.;Amouroux, R.; Tet. Lett. 1996, 37, 5103-5106; Chong, J. M.; Sharpless,K. B.; J Org Chem 1985, 50, 1560). These alcohols eventually can befurther elaborated into R¹⁰ by one skilled in the art, as, for example,by tosylation of the alcohol and cuprate displacement (Hanessian, S.;Thavonekham, B.; DeHoff, B.; J Org. Chem. 1989, 54, 5831), etc., and byother displacement reactions which will be discussed in great detaillater on in this application.

Further use of epoxides to synthesize compounds of this invention areshown in Scheme 8. Reaction of pyrrole or piperidine 1 with epoxide 54yields protected amino-alcohol 55. This reaction works exceptionaly wellwhen R⁷ and R⁸ are H but is not limited thereto. The reaction isperformed in an inert solvent at room temperature to the refluxtemperature of the solvent. Protecting groups on the nitrogen atom of 54include BOC and CBZ but are not limited thereto. The hydroxyl group canbe optionally protected by a variety of protecting groups familiar toone skilled in the art.

Deprotection of the nitrogen by methods familiar to one skilled in theart yields 56 which can be elaborated to the compounds of this inventionby the procedures previously discussed. If R⁹═H, then oxidation, forexample, by using 10 PCC (Corey E. J. and Suggs, J. W., Tet. Lett. 1975,31, 2647-2650) or with the Dess-Martin periodinane (Dess, D. B. andMartin, J. C., J. Org. Chem. 1983, 48, 4155-4156) yields ketone 57 whichmay undergo nucleophilic 1,2-addition with organometallic reagents suchas alkyl- or aryllithiums, Grignards, or zinc reagents, with or withoutCeCl₃ (T. Imamoto, et al., Tet. Lett. 1985, 26, 4763-4766; T. Imamoto,et al., Tet. Lett. 1984, 25, 4233-4236) in aprotic solvents such asether, dioxane, or THF to yield alcohol 58. The hydroxyl group can beoptionally protected by a variety of protecting groups familiar to oneskilled in the art. Deprotection of the nitrogen yields 56 which can befinally elaborated to the compounds of this invention as previouslydiscussed. Epoxides disclosed by structure 54 may be synthesizedenantio-selectively from amino acid starting materials by the methods ofDellaria, et al. J Med Chem 1987, 30 (11), 2137, and Luly, et al.

The carbonyl group of ketone 57 in Scheme 8 may undergo Wittig reactionsfollowed by reduction of the double bond to yield alkyl, arylalkyl,heterocyclic-alkyl, cycloalkyl, cycloalkylalkyl, etc. substitution atthat position, reactions that are familiar to one skilled in the art.Wittig reagents can also contain functional groups which after reductionof the double bond yield the following functionality: esters (Buddrus,J. Angew Chem., 1968, 80), nitrites (Cativiela, C. et al., Tetrahedron1996, 52 (16), 5881-5888.), ketone (Stork, G. et al., J Am Chem Soc1996, 118 (43), 10660-10661), aldehyde and methoxymethyl (Bertram, G. etal., Tetrahedron Lett 1996, 37 (44), 7955-7958.), gamma-butyrolactoneVidari, G. et al.,Tetrahedron: Asymmetry 1996, 7 (10), 3009-3020.),carboxylic acids (Svoboda, J. et al., Collect Czech Chem Commun 1996, 61(10), 1509-1519), ethers (Hamada, Y. et al., Tetrahedron Lett 1984, 25(47), 5413), alcohols (after hydrogenation and deprotection—Schonauer,K.; Zbiral, E.; Tetrahedron Lett 1983, 24 (6), 573), amines (Marxer, A.;Leutert, T. Helv Chim Acta, 1978, 61) etc., all of which may furtherundergo transformations familiar to one skilled in the art to form awide variety of functionality at this position.

Scheme 9 summarizes the displacement chemistry and subsequentelaborations that can be used to synthesize the R⁹ groups. In Scheme 9we see that alcohol 55 or 58 may be tosylated, mesylated, triflated, orconverted to a halogen by methods familiar to one skilled in the art toproduce compound 59. (Note that all of the following reactions in thisparagraph can be also performed on the compounds, henceforth calledcarbon homologs of 55 or 58 where OH can be (CH₂)_(r)OH and it is alsounderstood that these carbon homologs may have substituents on themethylene groups as well). For example, a hydroxyl group may beconverted to a bromide by CBr₄ and Ph₃P (Takano, S. Heterocycles 1991,32, 1587). For other methods of converting an alcohol to a bromide or toa chloride or to an iodide see R. C. Larock, Comprehensive OrganicTransformations, VCH Publishers, New York, 1989, pp. 354-360. Compound59 in turn may be displaced by a wide variety of nucleophiles as shownin Scheme 9 including but not limited to azide, cyano, malonate,cuprates, potassium thioacetate, thiols, amines, etc., all nucleophilicdisplacement reactions being familiar to one skilled in the art.Displacement by nitrile yields a one-carbon homologation product.Nitrile 60 can be reduced with DIBAL to yield aldehyde 61. This aldehydecan undergo reduction to alcohol 62 with, for example, NaBH₄ which inturn can undergo all of the S_(N)2 displacement reactions mentioned foralcohol 55 or 58. Alcohol 62 is a one carbon homolog of alcohol 55 or58. Thus one can envision taking alcohol 62, converting it to a leavinggroup X as discussed above for compound 55 or 58, and reacting it withNaCN or KCN to form a nitrile, subsequent DIBAL reduction to thealdehyde and subsequent NaBH₄ reduction to the alcohol resulting in atwo carbon homologation product. This alcohol can undergo activationfollowed by the same SN² displacement reactions discussed previously, adinfinitum, to result in 3,4,5 . . . etc. carbon homologation products.Aldehyde 61 can also be reacted with a lithium or Grignard reagent toform an alcohol 61a which can also undergo the above displacementreactions. Oxidation by methods familiar to one skilled in the artyields ketone 61b. Displacement by malonate yields malonic ester 63which can be saponified and decarboxylated to yield carboxylic acid 64,a two carbon homologation product. Conversion to ester 65 (A. Hassnerand V. Alexanian, Tet. Lett, 1978, 46, 4475-8) and reduction with LAHyields alcohol 68 which can undergo all of the displacement reactionsdiscussed for alcohol 55 or 58. Alcohols may be converted to thecorresponding fluoride 70 by DAST (diethylaminosulfur trifluoride)(Middleton, W. J.; Bingham, E. M.; Org. Synth. 1988, VI, pg. 835).Sulfides 71 can be converted to the corresponding sulfoxides 72 (p=1) bysodium metaperiodate oxidation (N. J. Leonard, C. R. Johnson J. Org.Chem. 1962, 27, 282-4) and to sulfones 172 (p=2) by Oxone® (A. Castro,T. A. Spencer J. Org. Chem. 1992, 57, 3496-9). Sulfones 72 can beconverted to the corresponding sulfonamides 73 by the method of H.-C.Huang, E. et al., Tet. Lett. (1994) 35, 7201-7204 which involves first,treatment with base followed by reaction with a trialkylborane yieldinga sulfinic acid salt which can be reacted with hydroxylamine-O-sulfonicacid to yield a sulfonamide. Another route to sulfonamides involvesreaction of amines with a sulfonyl chloride (G. Hilgetag and A. Martini,Preparative Organic Chemistry, New York: John Wiley and Sons, 1972,p.679). This sulfonyl chloride (not shown in Scheme 9) can be obtainedfrom the corresponding sulfide (71 where R^(9d)═H in Scheme 9, thehydrolysis product after thioacetate displacement), disulfide, orisothiouronium salt by simply reacting with chlorine in water. Theisothiouronium salt may be synthesized from the corresponding halide,mesylate or tosylate 59 via reaction with thiourea (for a discussion onthe synthesis of sulfonyl chlorides see G. Hilgetag and A. Martini,ibid., p. 670). Carboxylic acid 64 can be converted to amides 66 bystandard coupling procedures or via an acid chloride by Schotten-Baumannchemistry or to a Weinreb amide (66: R^(9a)═OMe, R^(9a′)═Me in Scheme 9)(S. Nahm and S. M. Weinreb, Tet. Lett., 1981, 22, 3815-3818) which canundergo reduction to an aldehyde 67 (R^(9b)═H in Scheme 9) with LAH (S.Nahm and S. M. Weinreb, ibid.) or reactions with Grignard reagents toform ketones 67 (S. Nahm and S. M. Weinreb, ibid.). The aldehyde 67obtained from the Weinreb amide reduction can be reduced to the alcoholwith NaBH₄. The aldehyde or ketone 67 (or 61 or 61b for that matter) canundergo Wittig reactions as discussed previously followed by optionalcatalytic hydrogenation of the olefin. This Wittig sequence is onemethod for synthesizing the carbocyclic and heterocyclic substitutedsystems at R⁹ employing the appropriate carbocyclic or heterocyclicWittig (or Horner-Emmons) reagents. Of course, the Wittig reaction mayalso be used to synthesize alkenes at R⁹ and other functionality aswell. Ester 65 can also form amides 66 by the method of Weinreb (A.Basha, M. Lipton, and S. M. Weinreb, Tet. Lett. 1977, 48, 4171-74) (J.I. Levin, E. Turos, S. M. Weinreb, Syn. Comm. 1982, 12, 989-993).Alcohol 68 can be converted to ether 69 by procedures familiar to oneskilled in the art, for example, NaH, followed by an alkyliodide or byMitsunobu chemistry (Mitsunobu, O. Synthesis, 1981, 1-28). Alcohol 55 or58, 62, or 68, can be acylated by procedures familiar to one skilled inthe art, for example, by Schotten-Baumann conditions with an acidchloride or by an anhydride with a base such as pyridine to yield 78.Halide, mesylate, tosylate or triflate 59 can undergo displacement withazide followed by reduction to yield amine 74 a procedure familiar toone skilled in the art. This amine can undergo optional reductiveamination and acylation to yield 75 or reaction with ethyl formate(usually refluxing ethyl formate) to yield formamide 75. Amine 74 canagain undergo optional reductive amination followed by reaction with asulfonyl chloride to yield 76, for example under Schotten-Baumannconditions as discussed previously. This same sequence may be employedfor amine 60a, the reduction product of nitrite 60. Tosylate 59 canundergo displacement with cuprates to yield 77 (Hanessian, S.;Thavonekham, B.; DeHoff, B.; J Org. Chem. 1989, 54, 5831). Aldehyde 61or its homologous extensions can be reacted with a carbon anion of anaryl (phenyl, naphthalene, etc.) or heterocyclic group to yield an arylalcohol or a heterocyclic alcohol. If necessary, CeCl₃ may be added (T.Imamoto, et al., Tet. Lett. 1985, 26, 4763-4766; T. Imamoto, et al.,Tet. Lett. 1984, 25, 4233-4236). This alcohol may be reduced with Et₃SiHand TFA (J. Org. Chem. 1969, 34, 4; J. Org. Chem. 1987, 52, 2226) (seediscussion of aryl and heterocyclic anions for Schemes 20-22). Thesearyl and heterocyclic anions may also be alkylated by 59 (or its carbonhomolog) to yield compounds where R⁹ contains an aryl or heterocyclicgroup. Compound 59 or its carbon homologs may be alkylated by an alkyneanion to produce alkynes at R⁹ (see R. C. Larock, Comprehensive OrganicTransformations, New York, 1989, VCH Publishers, p 297). In addition,carboxaldehyde 61 or its carbon homologs can undergo 1,2-addition by analkyne anion (Johnson, A. W. The Chemistry of Acetylenic Compounds.V. 1. “Acetylenic Alcohols,” Edward Arnold and Co., London (1946)).Nitro groups can be introduced by displacing bromide 59 (or its carbonhomologs) with sodium nitrite in DMF (J. K. Stille and E. D. Vessel J.Org. Chem. 1960, 25, 478-490) or by the action of silver nitrite oniodide 59 or its carbon homologs (Org. Syntheses 34, 37-39).

If an anion is made of the pyrrolidine/piperidine 1 with LDA or n-BuLi,etc., then that anion in a suitable nonhydroxylic solvent such as THF,ether, dioxane, etc., can react in a Michael-type fashion (1,4-addition)with an alpha,beta-unsaturated ester to yield an intermediate enolatewhich can be quenched with an electrophile (R⁹X) (where X is asdescribed in Scheme 1) (Uyehara, T.; Asao, N.; Yamamoto, Y.; J Chem Soc,Chem Commun 1987, 1410) as shown in Scheme 10.

It is to be understood that R⁹ is either in its final form or in asuitable protected precursor form. This electrophile can be acarbon-based electrophile, some examples being formaldehyde to introducea CH₂OH group, an aldehyde or a ketone which also introduces aone-carbon homologated alcohol, ethylene oxide (or other epoxides) whichintroduces a —CH₂CH₂OH group (a two-carbon homologated alcohol), analkyl halide, etc., all of which can be later elaborated into R⁹. It canalso be an oxygen-based electrophile such as MCPBA, Davis' reagent(Davis, F. A.; Haque, M. S.; J Org Chem 1986, 51 (21),4083; Davis, F.A.; Vishwaskarma, L. C.; Billmers, J. M.; Finn, J.; J Org Chem 1984, 49,3241) or MoO₅ (Martin, T. et al., J Org Chem 1996, 61 (18), 6450-6453)which introduces an OH group. These OH groups can undergo thedisplacement reactions discussed previously in Scheme 9 or protected bysuitable protecting groups and deprotected at a later stage when thedisplacement reactions described in Scheme 9 can be performed. Inaddition, these OH groups can also undergo displacement reactions withheterocycles as described for Schemes 19-22 to introduce N- orC-substituted heterocycles at this position. Ester 80 can be convertedinto its Weinreb amide 82 (S. Nahm and S. M. Weinreb, Tet. Lett., 1981,22, 3815-3818) or Weinreb amide 82 can be synthesized via Michael-typeaddition of 1 to alpha,beta-unsaturated Weinreb amide 83. Subsequentreaction with a Grignard reagent forms ketone 85. This ketone can alsobe synthesized in one step directly from 1 and alpha,beta-unsaturatedketone 84 using the same procedure. This ketone may be reduced with LAH,NaBH₄ or other reducing agents to form alcohol 86. Or else, ketone 85can be reacted with an organolithium or Grignard reagents to formtertiary alcohol 87 . Or else, ester 80 can be directly reduced withLiBH₄ or LAH to yield primary alcohol 88.

Alcohols 86, 87, and 88 can all be tosylated, mesylated, triflated, orconverted to a halogen by methods discussed previously and displacedwith an amine nucleophile such as azide, diphenylphosphoryl azide (withor without DEAD and Ph₃P), phthalimide, etc. as discussed previously(and which are familiar to one skilled in the art) and after reduction(azide) or deprotection with hydrazine (phthalimide), for example, yieldthe corresponding amines. These can then be elaborated into thecompounds of this invention as discussed previously. Ketone 85 can alsobe converted into imine 89 which can be reacted with a Grignard reagentor lithium reagent, etc., to form a protected amine 90 which can bedeprotected and elaborated into the compounds of this invention asdiscussed previously. Some protecting groups include benzyl andsubstituted benzyl which can be removed by hydrogenation, andcyanoethyl, which can be removed with aqueous base, etc. It is to beunderstood that R⁷⁻¹² in Scheme 10 can be in their final form or inprecursor form which can be elaborated into final form by proceduresfamiliar to one skilled in the art.

Magnesium amides of amines have been used to add in a Michael-typemanner to alpha,beta-unsaturated esters where the substituents at thebeta position of the unsaturated ester are tied together to form acyclopentane ring (for example, compound 79 where R⁷ and R⁸ are takentogether to be —(CH₂)₄—) (Kobayashi, K. et al., Bull Chem Soc Jpn, 1997,70 (7), 1697-1699). Thus reaction of pyrrolidine or piperidine 1 withcycloalkylidine esters 79 as in Scheme 10 yields esters 80 where R⁷ andR⁸ are taken together to form a cycloalkyl ring. Subsequent elaborationyields compounds of this invention where R⁷ and R⁸ are taken together toform a cycloalkyl ring.

Compounds of structure 95a may also be synthesized from epoxyalcoholswhich are shown in Scheme 11. Allylic alcohol 91 can be epoxidizedeither stereoselectively using VO(acac)2 catalyst (for a review, seeEvans: Chem. Rev. 1993, 93, 1307) or enantioselectively (Sharpless: J.Am. Chem. Soc. 1987, 109, 5765) to epoxyalcohol 92. S_(N)2 displacementof the alcohol using zinc azide and triphenylphosphine (Yoshida, A. J.Org. Chem. 57, 1992, 1321-1322) or diphenylphosphoryl azide, DEAD, andtriphenylphosphine (Saito, A. et al., Tet. Lett. 1997, 38 (22),3955-3958) yields azidoalcohol 93. Hydrogenation over a Pd catalystyields aminoalcohol 94. This can be protected in situ or in a subsequentstep with BOC₂O to put on a BOC protecting group, or with CBZ-C1 andbase to put on a CBZ-group or other protecting groups. Alternatively,the amino group can be reacted with an isocyanate, an isothiocyanate, acarbamoyl chloride, or any reagent depicted in Scheme 1 to form 95 whichcan be alkylated with 1 to form the compounds of this invention.

Sometimes amine 1 might have to be activated with Lewis acids in orderto open the epoxide ring (Fujiwara, M.; Imada, M.; Baba, A.; Matsuda,H.;Tetrahedron Lett 1989, 30, 739; Caron, M.; Sharpless, K. B.; J OrgChem 1985, 50, 1557) or 1 has to be deprotonated and used as a metalamide, for example the lithium amide (Gorzynski-Smith, J.; Synthesis1984 (8), 629) or MgBr amide (Carre, M. C.; Houmounou, J. P.; Caubere,P.; Tetrahedron Lett 1985, 26, 3107) or aluminum amide (Overman, L. E.;Flippin, L. A.; Tetrahedron Lett 1981, 22, 195).

The quaternary salts (where R⁴ is present as a substituent) ofpyrrolidines and piperidines can be synthesized by simply reacting theamine with an alkylating agent, such as methyl iodide, methyl bromide,ethyl iodide, ethyl bromide, ethyl or methyl bromoacetate,bromoacetonitrile, allyl iodide, allylbromide, benzyl bromide, etc. in asuitable solvent such as THF, DMF, DMSO, etc. at room temperature to thereflux temperature of the solvent. Spiroquaternary salts can besynthesized in a similar manner, the only difference being that thealkylating agent is located intramolecularly as shown in Scheme 12. Itis understood by one skilled in the art that functional groups might notbe in their final form to permit cyclization to the quaternary ammoniumsalt and might have to be in precursor form or in protected form to beelaborated to their final form at a later stage. For example, theNR¹(C=Z)NR²R³ group on the rightmost phenyl ring of compound 104 mightexist as a nitro group precursor for ease of manipulation duringquaternary salt formation. Subsequent reduction and NR¹(C=Z)NR²R³ groupformation yields product 105. The leaving groups represented by X inScheme 12 may equal those represented in Scheme 1, but are not limitedthereto. N-oxides of pyrrolidines and piperidines can be made by theprocedure of L. W. Deady (Syn. Comm. 1977, 7, 509-514). This simplyentails reacting the pyrrolidine or piperidine with MCPBA, for example,in an inert solvent such as methylene chloride.

Multisubstituted pyrrolidines and piperidines may be synthesized by themethods outlined in Scheme 13. Monoalkylation of 106 via an enolateusing LDA or potassium hexamethyldisilazane, or converting 106 first toan enamine, or by using other bases, all of which can be done in THF,ether, dioxane, benzene, or an appropriate non-hydroxylic solvent at−78° C. to room temperature with an alkylating agent such as methyliodide, benzyl bromide, etc. where X is as defined in Scheme 1, yieldsproduct 107. This product can subsequently undergo alkylation againunder thermodynamic or kinetic conditions and afterwards, if need be,can undergo two more alkylations to produce tri- and tetrasubstitutedanalogs of 107. The thermodynamic or kinetic conditions yieldregioselectively alkylated products (for a discussion on thermodynamicvs. kinetic alkylations see H. House Modern Synthetic Reactions, W. A.Benjamin, Inc. (Menlo Park, Calif.: 1972) chapter 9).

Subsequent Wittig olefination yields compound 108. Hydrogenation(asymmetric hydrogenation is an option here: Parshall, G. W. HomogeneousCatalysis, John Wiley and Sons, New York: 1980, pp. 43-45; Collman, J.P., Hegedus, L. S. Principles and Applications of Organotransition MetalChemistry, University Science Books, Mill Valley, Calif., 1980, pp.341-348) yields pyrrolidine or piperidine 109 which can be resolved intoits relative and/or absolute isomers at this stage or later on in thesynthesis either by crystallization, chromatographic techniques, orother methods familiar to one skilled in the art. The amine 109 an thenbe elaborated into the compounds of this invention by methods discussedpreviously (Scheme 1). The carbonyl-containing intermediate 107 inScheme 13 can also be reduced to the methylene analog via aWolff-Kishner reduction and modifications thereof, or by other methodsfamiliar to one skilled in the art. The carbonyl group can also bereduced to an OH group, which can undergo all of the reactions describedin Scheme 9 to synthesize the R6 groups. This piperidine or pyrrolidinecan be deprotected and elaborated to the compounds of this invention bymethods discussed earlier. Thus, mono-, di-, tri-, or tetraalkylatedcarbonyl-containing pyrrolidines or piperidines can be synthesized,which in turn can be reduced to the corresponding —CH₂— analogsemploying the Wolff-Kishner reduction or other methods.

Another method for synthesizing gem-substituted pyrrolidines andpiperidines is shown in Scheme 14. It is understood by one skilled inthe art that some of the steps in this scheme can be rearranged. It isalso understood that gem-disubstitution is only shown at only oneposition on the piperidine ring and that similar transformations may beperformed on other carbon atoms as well, both for piperidine andpyrrolidine. Thus, 3-carboethoxypiperidine 110 may be BOC-protected andalkylated employing a base such as LDA, KHMDS, LHDMS, etc., in THF,ether, dioxane, etc. at −78° C. to room temperature, and an alkylatingagent R⁶X where X is a halide (halide=Cl, Br, I), mesylate, tosylate ortriflate, to yield 112. Reduction using DIBAL, for example, and ifnecessary followed by oxidation such as a Swern oxidation (S. L. Huang,K. Omura, D. Swern J. Org. Chem. 1976, 41, 3329-32) yields aldehyde 113.Wittig olefination (114) followed by deprotection yields 115 which maybe elaborated as described previously into the compounds of thisinvention. Reduction of the Wittig adduct 114 yields 116 which may bedeprotected to yield 117 which may be in turn elaborated as describedpreviously into the compounds of this invention. Reaction of aldehyde113 with an alkyllithium or Grignard reagent yields alcohol 118 whichmay be reduced catalytically or with Et₃SiH/TFA (J. Org. Chem. 1969, 34,4; J. Org. Chem. 1987, 52, 2226) if R^(5*) (R^(5*)=R⁵ or a precursorthereof) is aromatic to yield 119. If R^(5*) is not aromatic, then theOH may be reduced by the method of Barton (Barton, D. H. R.;Jaszberenyi, J. C. Tet. Lett. 1989, 30, 2619 and other referencestherein). Once tosylated, the alcohol can also be displaced withdialkyllithium cuprates (not shown) (Hanessian, S.; Thavonekham, B.;DeHoff, B.; J Org. Chem. 1989, 54, 5831). Deprotection if necessaryyields 120 which may be elaborated as described previously into thecompounds of this invention.

A method for the alkylation of alkyl groups, arylalkyl groups, allylicgroups, propargylic groups, etc., and a variety of other electrophilesonto the pyrrolidinyl and/or piperidinyl alpha-carbons (alpha to thering nitrogen atom) is represented by the work of Peter Beak, et al. asshown in Scheme 15. It is understood by one skilled in the art that theR⁵ and R¹³ groups are either in their precursor, protected, or finalform. Only one R⁵ group is shown to be substituted onpiperidine/pyrrolidine 121. However it is understood by one skilled inthe art that additional functionality may be present on the ring ineither precursor, protected, or final form. Thus lithiation with analkyllithium reagent such as n-BuLi or s-BuLi as shown, followed byquenching with an electrophilic species such as R⁵X or R¹³X where X isas defined in Scheme 1 and R⁵ and R¹³ are in their precursor, protected,or final form, yields monoalkylated piperidine/pyrrolidine 122. Thisalkylation may occur either stereoselectively (P. Beak and W. K. Lee J.Org. Chem. 1990, 55, 2578-2580) or enantioselectively if sparteine isincluded as a source of chirality (P. Beak, et al., J. Am. Chem. Soc.1994, 116, 3231-3239). The alkylation process may be repeated up tothree more times as shown in Scheme 15 to result in di-, tri-, andtetrasubstitution at the alpha-positions.

Compounds where R⁹ and R¹⁰ form a cyclic 3,4,5,6, or 7-membered ring canbe synthesized by the methods disclosed in Scheme 16. These same methodsmay also be used to synthesize gem-disubstituted compounds in which R⁹can be different from R¹⁰ by step-wise alkylation of the malonatederivative. Of course, this scheme may be used to synthesize compoundswhere R¹⁰═H also. For example, a cyclohexyl-fused malonate may besynthesized by Michael addition and alkylation of I(CH2)₄CH═CCO₂Me withdimethyl malonate employing NaH/DMF (Desmaele, D.; Louvet, J.-M.; TetLett 1994, 35 (16), 2549-2552) or by a double Michael addition (Reddy,D. B., et al., Org. Prep. Proced. Int. 24 (1992) 1, 21 -26) (Downes, A.M.; Gill, N. S.; Lions, F.; J Am Chem or by an alkylation followed by asecond intromolecular alkylation employing an iodoaldehyde (Suami, T.;Tadano, K.; Kameda, Y.; Iimura, Y.; Chem Lett 1984, 1919), or by analkylation followed by a second intramolecular alkylation employing analkyl dihalide (Kohnz, H.; Dull, B.; Mullen, K.; Angew Chem 1989, 101(10), 1375), etc.

Subsequent monosaponification (Pallai, P. V., Richman, S., Struthers, R.S., Goodman, M. Int. J. Peptide Protein Res. 1983, 21, 84-92; M. GoodmanInt. J. Peptide Protein Res. 19831, 17, 72-88), standard coupling withpyrrolidine/piperidine 1 yields 128. Reduction with borane yields 129followed by reduction with LAH yields 130 which can be then converted toamine 131 and then to the compounds of this invention by procedures asdiscussed previously. Ester 129 can also be converted to a Weinreb amideand elaborated to the compounds of this invention as described in Scheme10 for ester 80 which would introduce substituents R¹¹ and R¹².

Scheme 17 describes another method for the synthesis of compounds whereR⁹ and R¹⁰ are taken together to form cycloalkyl groups. Aminoalcohols132 are found in the literature (CAS Registry Nos. for n=0,1,2,3,respectively: 45434-02-4, 2041-56-7, 2239-31-8, 2041-57-8). They caneasily be protected, as with a BOC group (or CBZ, or any othercompatible protecting group) by known procedures familiar to one skilledin the art to yield alcohols 133. The alcohols can then be activatedeither by conversion to a halide or to a mesylate, tosylate or triflateby methods familiar to one skilled in the art and as discussedpreviously, and then alkylated with pyrrolidine/piperidine 1 by theconditions described in Scheme 1 to yield 135. Subsequent deprotectionyields amine 136 which can be elaborated to the compounds of thisinvention as described previously. Of course, alcohol 133 can beoxidized to the aldehyde and then reacted with R^(7or8)MgBr orR^(7or8)Li with or without CeCl₃ to yield the corresponding alcohol 133where instead of —CH₂OH, we would have —CHR^(7or8)OH. Thisoxidation-1,2-addition sequence may be repeated to yield a tertiaryalcohol. The alcohol may then be tosylated, mesylated, triflated, orconverted to Cl, Br, or I by procedures familiar to one skilled in theart to yield 134 and then displaced with pyrrolidine/piperidine 1 toyield 135. Subsequent deprotection yields 136 which may undergoelaboration to the compounds of this invention as discussed previously.

A method to introduce cycloalkyl groups at R¹¹R¹² is shown in Scheme 18.Protection of the nitrogen of compounds 137 which are commerciallyavailable yields 138 (the protecting group may be BOC, CBZ, or any othercompatible protecting group) by procedures familiar to one skilled inthe art. Esterification by any one of a number procedures familiar toone skilled in the art (for example A. Hassner and V. Alexanian, Tet.Lett, 1978, 46, 4475-8) followed by reduction with DIBAL (oralternatively reduction to the alcohol with, for example, LiBH₄,followed by Swern oxidation (op. cit.)) yields aldehyde 139. One carbonhomologation via the Wittig reaction followed by hydrolysis of the vinylether yields aldehyde 141. Reductive amination (Abdel-Magid, A. F., etal. Tet. Lett. 1990, 31, (39) 5595-5598) yields 142 followed bydeprotection yields amine 143 which can be elaborated to the compoundsof this invention by the methods previously discussed. Of course,aldehyde 139 can be reacted with R^(9or10)MgBr or R^(9or10)Li with orwithout CeCl₃ to yield an alcohol which can be oxidized to a ketone.Wittig one-carbon homologation on this ketone as described abovefollowed by hydrolysis yields 141 where the —CH₂CHO is substituted withone R^(9or10) group (—CHR^(9or10) CHO)

Aldehyde 141 (—CH₂CHO) or its monosubstituted analog synthesized above(—CHR^(9or10)CHO) can undergo alkylation with R^(9or10)X where X is asdefined in Scheme 1 to yield compound 141 containing one or both of theR⁹ and R¹⁰ substituents alpha to the aldehyde group. Alkylation can beperformed using LDA or lithium bistrimethylsilyl amide amongst otherbases in an inert solvent such as ether, THF, etc., at −78° C. to roomtemperature. Aldehyde 141 (—CH₂CHO)or its substituted analogssynthesized above (i.e., —CHR⁹R¹⁰CHO) can undergo reductive aminationwith 1 and subsequent elaboration to the compounds of this invention.Aldehyde 141 (—CH₂CHO)or its substituted analogs synthesized above(i.e., —CHR⁹R¹⁰CHO) can also undergo 1,2-addition with R^(7or8)MgBr orR^(7or8)Li to yield the corresponding alcohol —CH₂CHR^(7or8)OH or—CHR⁹R¹⁰CHR^(7or8)OH. The alcohol may then be tosylated, mesylated,triflated, or converted to Cl, Br, or I by procedures familiar to oneskilled in the art and displaced with pyrrolidine/piperidine 1 to yield,after subsequent deprotection and elaboration, the compounds of thisinvention. Or else alcohol —CH₂CHR^(7or8)OH or —CR⁹R¹⁰CHR^(7or8)OH canbe oxidized (i.e., Swern, op. cit.) to the ketone and reductivelyaminated with 1 and subsequently elaborated to the compounds of thisinvention. Or else alcohol —CH₂CHR^(7or8)OH or —CR⁹R¹⁰CHR^(7or8)OH canbe oxidized (i.e., Swern, op. cit.) to the ketone and reacted once morewith R^(7or8)MgBr or R^(7or8)Li to yield the corresponding alcohol—CH₂CR⁷R⁸OH or —CR⁹R¹⁰CR⁷R⁸OH. If the ketone enolizes easily, CeCl₃ maybe used together with the Grignard or lithium reagent. The alcohol canagain be tosylated, mesylated, triflated, or converted to Cl, Br, or Iby procedures familiar to one skilled in the art and displaced withpyrrolidine/piperidine 1 to yield, after subsequent deprotection andelaboration, the compounds of this invention. Thus each one of the R⁷,R⁸, R⁹, and R¹⁰ groups may be introduced into compounds 141, 142 and 143and and, of course, in the compounds of this invention, by the methodsdiscussed above.

A method for the synthesis of N-substituted heterocycles at R⁵ is shownin Scheme 19. The heterocycle can be deprotonated with NaH or by otherbases familiar to one skilled in the art, in a solvent such as DMF, THF,or another appropriate non-hydroxylic solvent and reacted withpiperidine or pyrrolidine 143 at room temperature to the refluxtemperature of the solvent. Deprotection and elaboration as describedbefore yields compounds where R⁵ contains an N-substituted heterocycle.If the nitrogen atom of the heterocycle is sufficiently nucleophilic,then an acid scavenger, such as K₂CO₃, KHCO₃, Na₂CO₃, NaHCO₃, amongstothers, can be used in place of NaH, employing THF, DMF, or methyl ethylketone as solvents. In this case hydroxylic solvents may be used aswell, such as methanol, ethanol, etc. from room temperature to thereflux temperature of the solvent. Compound 143 as well as its otherpositional isomers are available, for example, from commerciallyavailable 4-hydroxymethylpiperidine, 2-, 3-, and4-carboethoxypiperidine, L- or D-proline ethyl ester, or from methyl1-benzyl-5-oxo-3-pyrrolidinecarboxylate by methods familiar to oneskilled in the art and as discussed previously in this application.

A method for the synthesis of C-substituted heterocycles at R⁵ is shownin Scheme 20. Many heterocycles such as the ones shown in Scheme 20, butnot limited thereto, can be metallated with strong bases such as LDA,n-BuLi, sec-BuLi, t-BuLi, etc. to yield the corresponding anionicspecies. These anions may also be generated via halogen-metal exchangeemploying n-BuLi, or other alkyllithium reagents. These reactions may beperformed in THF, ether, dioxane, DME, benzene, etc. at −78° C. to roomtemperature.

For reviews of these metallations and halogen-metal exchange reactionssee Organometallics in Organic Synthesis, FMC Corp., Lithium Division,1993, pp. 17-39; Lithium Link, FMC Corp., Spring 1993, pp. 2-17;n-Butyllithium in Organic Synthesis, Lithium Corp. of America, 1982, pp.8-16; G. Heinisch, T. Langer, P. Lukavsky, J. Het. Chem. 1997, 34,17-19. The anions can then be quenched with electrophile 143 or itspositional isomers to yield the corresponding C-alkylated heterocyclicpyrrolidine or piperidine 145.

Another method for the synthesis of C-substitutedheterocyclic-methylpyrrolidines or piperidines is shown in Scheme 21.The protected aldehyde 146 is reacted with the anion of the heterocycle(its generation as described previously) at −78° C. to room temperaturewith or without CeCl₃ in an inert solvent such as THF, ether, dioxane,DME, benzene, etc. to yield carbinol 147. Catalytic hydrogenation of thealcohol yields the corresponding methylene compound 145. Other reductionmethods include Et₃SiH/TFA (J. Org. Chem. 1969, 34, 4; J. Org. Chem.1987, 52, 2226) amongst others familiar to one skilled in the art. It isunderstood by one skilled in the art that the aldehyde group can belocated in other positions instead of, for example, the 4-position ofpiperidine in compound 146 as depicted in Scheme 21. It is to beunderstood that other heterocycles may also be used besides the onesshown in Scheme 20 and 21.

The anions of the methyl-substituted heterocycles may also be reactedwith a BOC-protected piperidone or pyrrolidone (148) to yield alcohols149 as shown in Scheme 22 (see above reviews on metallations forreferences). These alcohols may be reduced using PtO₂ and TFA (P. E.Peterson and C. Casey, J. Org. Chem. 1964, 29, 2325-9) to yieldpiperidines and pyrrolidines 150. These can subsequently be taken on tothe compounds of this invention as described previously. It isunderstood by one skilled in the art that the carbonyl group can belocated in other positions instead of, for example, the 4-position ofpiperidine in compound 148 as depicted in Scheme 22. It is to beunderstood that other heterocycles may also be used besides the onesshown in Scheme 22.

One may also react aryl (phenyl, naphthyl, etc.) anions, generatedeither by halogen-metal exchange or by ortho-directed metallation(Snieckus, V. Chem. Rev. 1990, 90, 879-933) using n- or s- or t-BuLi ina non-hydroxylic solvent such as THF, ether, etc., with or without TMEDAand allow them to react with compounds 143, 146, and 148 with subsequentelaboration to yield the compounds of this invention by the methodsdepicted in Schemes 19-22.

Another method for the preparation of C-substituted heterocycles isshown in Scheme 23. Protected piperidone 148 undergoes a Wittig reactionwith heterocyclic phosphorous ylides to yield 151. Hydrogenation over anoble metal catalyst such as Pd in an alcoholic solvent or with anoptically active transition metal catalyst (see asymmetric hydrogenationreferences of Parshall and Coleman, op. cit.) yields 152 which can befurther elaborated into the compounds of this invention by theprocedures described previously. It will be appreciated by one skilledin the art that the carbonyl group can be located in other positionsinstead of, for example, the 4-position of piperidine in compound 148 asdepicted in Scheme 23. It is to be understood that other heterocyclesmay also be used besides the ones shown in Scheme 23.

Syntheses of amines 9, 10, and the amines which are precursors toisocyanates or isothiocyanates 5 will now be discussed. For example,3-nitrobenzeneboronic acid (153: Scheme 24) is commercially availableand can undergo Suzuki couplings (Suzuki, A. Pure Appl. Chem. 1991, 63,419) with a wide variety of substituted iodo- or bromo aryls (aryls suchas phenyl, naphthalene, etc.), heterocycles, alkyls, akenyls(Moreno-manas, M., et al., J. Org. Chem., 1995, 60, 2396), or alkynes.It can also undergo coupling with triflates of aryls, heterocycles, etc.(Fu, J.-m, Snieckus, V. Tet. Lett. 1990, 31, 1665-1668). Both of theabove reactions can also undergo carbonyl insertion in the presence ofan atmosphere of carbon monoxide (Ishiyama, et al., Tet. Lett. 1993, 34,7595). These nitro-containing compounds (155 and 157) can then bereduced to the corresponding amines either via catalytic hydrogenation,or via a number of chemical methods such as Zn/CaCl₂ (Sawicki, E. J OrgChem 1956, 21). The carbonyl insertion compounds (158) can also undergoreduction of the carbonyl group to either the CHOH or CH2 linkages bymethods already discussed (NaBH₄ or Et₃SiH, TFA, etc.). These amines canthen be converted to isocyanate 5 via the following methods (Nowakowski,J. J Prakt Chem/Chem-Ztg 1996, 338 (7), 667-671; Knoelker, H.-J. et al.,Angew Chem 1995, 107 (22), 2746-2749; Nowick, J. S. et al., J Org Chem1996, 61 (11), 3929-3934; Staab, H. A.; Benz, W.; Angew Chem 1961, 73);to isothiocyanate 5 via the following methods (Strekowski L. et al., JHeterocycl Chem 1996, 33 (6), 1685-1688; Kutschy, Pet al., Synlett 1997,(3), 289-290); to carbamoyl chloride 11 (after 156 or 158 is reductivelyaminated with an R² group) (Hintze, F.; Hoppe, D.; Synthesis (1992) 12,1216-1218); to thiocarbamoyl chloride 11 (after 156 or 158 isreductively aminated with an R² group) (Ried, W.; Hillenbrand, H.;Oertel, G.; Justus Liebigs Ann Chem 1954, 590); or just used as 9, or 10(after 156 or 158 is reductively aminated with an R² group), insynthesizing the compounds of this invention by the methods depicted inScheme 1.

Likewise, protected aminobromobenzenes or triflates or protectedaminobromoheterocycles or triflates 159 (Scheme 25) may undergoSuzuki-type couplings with arylboronic acids or heterocyclic boronicacids (160). These same bromides or triflates 159 may also undergoStille-type coupling (Echavarren, A. M., Stille, J. K. J. Am. Chem.Soc., 1987, 109, 5478-5486) with aryl, vinyl, or heterocyclic stannanes163. Bromides or triflates 159 may also undergo Negishi-type couplingwith other aryl or heterocyclic bromides 164 (Negishi E. Accts. Chem.Res. 1982, 15, 340; M. Sletzinger, et al., Tet. Lett. 1985, 26, 2951).Deprotection of the amino group yields an amine with can be coupled tomake a urea and other linkers containing Z as described above and forScheme 1. Amino protecting groups include phthalimide, 2,4-dimethylpyrrole (S. P. Breukelman, et al. J. Chem. Soc. Perkin Trans. I, 1984,2801); N-1,1,4,4-Tetramethyldisilyl-azacyclopentane (STABASE) (S.Djuric, J. Venit, and P. Magnus Tet. Lett 1981, 22, 1787) and othersfamiliar to one skilled in the art.

Compounds where R⁷ and R⁸ are taken together to form ═NR^(8b) can besynthesized by the methods in Scheme 25a. Reacting 1 with nitrile a withCuCl catalysis forms amidine b where R^(8b) is H (Rousselet, G.;Capdevielle, P.; Maumy, M.; Tetrahedron Lett. 1993, 34 (40), 6395-6398).Note that the urea portion may be in final form or in precursor form(for example, a protected nitrogen atom; P=protecting group such asSTABASE, bis-BOC, etc., as was discussed previously) which may besubsequently elaborated into the compounds of this invention. Compoundsb may be also synthesized by reacting iminoyl chloride c withpyrrolidine/piperidine 1 to yield k where R^(8b) is not H (Povazanec,F., et al., J. J. Heterocycl. Chem., 1992, 29, 6, 1507-1512). Iminoylchlorides are readily available from the corresponding amide via PCl₅ orCCl₄/PPh₃ (Duncia, J. V. et al., J. Org. Chem., 1991, 56, 2395-2400).Again, the urea portion may be in final form or in precursor form.

Many amines are commercially available and can be used as 9, 10, or usedas precursors to isocyanates or isothiocyanates 5. There are numerousmethods for the synthesis of non-commercially available amines familiarto one skilled in the art. For example, aldehydes and ketones may beconverted to their 0-benzyl oximes and then reduced with LAH to form anamine (Yamazaki, S.; Ukaji, Y.; Navasaka, K.; Bull Chem Soc Jpn 1986,59, 525). Ketones and trifluoromethylketones undergo reductive aminationin the presence of TiCl₄ followed by NaCNBH₄ to yield amines (Barney, C.L., Huber, E. W., McCarthy, J. R. Tet. Lett. 1990, 31, 5547-5550).Aldehydes and ketones undergo reductive amination with Na(AcO)₃BH asmentioned previously to yield amines (Abdel-Magid, A. F., et al. Tet.Lett. 1990, 31, (39) 5595-5598). Amines may also be synthesized fromaromatic and heterocyclic OH groups (for example, phenols) via theSmiles rearrangement (Weidner, J. J., Peet, N. P. J. Het. Chem., 1997,34, 1857-1860). Azide and nitrile displacements of halides, tosylates,mesylates, triflates, etc. followed by LAH or other types or reductionmethods yield amines. Sodium diformyl amide (Yinglin, H., Hongwen, H.Synthesis 1989 122), potassium phthalimide, and bis-BOC-amine anion canall displace halides, tosylates, mesylates, etc., followed by standarddeprotection methods to yield amines, procedures which are familiar toone skilled in the art. Other methods to synthesize more elaborateamines involve the Pictet-Spengler reaction, imine/immonium ionDiels-Alder reaction (Larsen, S. D.; Grieco, P. A. J. Am. Chem. Soc.1985, 107, 1768-69; Grieco, P. A., et al., J. Org. Chem. 1988, 53,3658-3662; Cabral, J. Laszlo, P. Tet. Lett. 1989, 30, 7237-7238; amidereduction (with LAH or diborane, for example), organometallic additionto imines (Bocoum, A. et al., J. Chem. Soc. Chem. Comm. 1993, 1542-4)and others all of which are familiar to one skilled in the art.

Compounds containing an alcohol side-chain alpha to the nitrogen of thepiperidine/pyrrolidine ring can be synthesized as shown in Scheme 25b.Only the piperidine case is exemplified, and it is to be understood byone skilled in the art that the alpha-substituted pyrrolidines may besynthesized by a similar route. It is also understood that appropriatesubstituents may be present on the piperidine/pyrrolidine ring. A4-benzylpiperidine 196 is protected with a BOC group. The BOC-piperidine197 is then metallated under conditions similar to those Beak, et al.(P. Beak and W.-K. Lee, J. Org. Chem. 1990, 55, 2578-2580, andreferences therein) and quenched with an aldehyde to yield alcohol 198.The metallation may also be done enantioselectively using sparteine (P.Beak, S. T. Kerrick, S. Wu, J. Chu J. Am. Chem. Soc. 1994, 116,3231-3239). This alcohol can be deprotonated with NaH and cyclized tocarbamate 198a which permits structural assignments of the erythro andthreo isomers. Deprotection with base yields aminoalcohol 199.Subsequent N-alkylation yields phthalimidoalkylpiperidine 201. It is tobe understood that the alkyl chain does not necessarily have to ben-propyl, but that n-propyl was chosen for demonstration purposes only.Deprotection of the phthalimido group with hydrazine yields amine 202.Finally, reaction with an isocyanate or via any of the previouslydescribed conditions described in Scheme 1 yields urea 203. If anisocyanate is used, the isocyanate can add twice to yield urea-carbamate204.

Compounds where Z=N—CN, CHNO₂, and C(CN)₂ can be synthesized by themethods shown in Scheme 25c. Thus amine 208 reacts with malononitrile207 neat or in an inert solvent at room temperature to the refluxtemperature of the solvent, or at the melting point of the solid/solidmixture, to yield malononitrile 206. This in turn can undergo reactionwith amine 205 under similar conditions stated just above to yieldmolononitrile 209. Likewise, a similar reaction sequence may be used tomake 212 and 215 [for Z=C(CN) ₂], see for example P. Traxler, et al., J.Med. Chem. (1997), 40, 3601-3616; for Z=N—CN, see K. S. Atwal, J. Med.Chem. (1998) 41, 271; for Z=CHNO₂, see J. M. Hoffman, et al., J. Med.Chem. (1983) 26, 140-144).

Example 3 Part A: Preparation of 1-(t-Butoxycarbonyl)-3-piperidone

To a deep yellow solution of 1-benzyl-3-piperidone hydrochloride (3.00g, 1.33 mmol, 1 equiv) in methanol (100 mL) was added 10 wt. % (drybasis) palladium on activated carbon (600 mg) under a stream ofnitrogen. The resulting black suspension was deoxygenated by alternateevacuation and flushing with nitrogen (3×) followed by alternateevacuation and flushing with hydrogen (3×). The reaction suspension wasthen shaken vigorously under a hydrogen atmosphere of 55 psi. After 12hours, gravity filtration of the supsension and concentration of theresulting filtrate in vacuo yielded crude 3-piperidone as a viscouslight green oil.

Theresulting black suspension was deoxygenated by alternate evacuation andflushing with nitrogen (3×) followed by alternate evacuation andflushing with hydrogen (3×). The reaction suspension was then shakenvigorously under a hydrogen atmosphere of 55 psi. After 12 hours,gravity filtration of the supsension and concentration of the resultingfiltrate in vacuo resulted in a pale yellow residue.

The compounds of the present invention in which E contains ring A can beprepared in a number of ways well known to one skilled in the art oforganic synthesis. As shown in Scheme 26, 4-benzyl piperidine isN-alkylated with an alkylating agent, such as 165 (2-nitro-benzylbromide (X=Br, R¹⁴═H), Scheme 26) to give the N-benzyl compound 166. Thenitro group of 166 is then reduced using catalytic hydrogenation to givethe corresponding aniline 167. The aniline can be converted to thecarbamate 168 using chloro-phenyl formate. The carbamate 168 can then bereacted with various amines to give the urea 169. Alternatively, theaniline 167 can be reacted with the appropriate isocyanates to give theurea 169 directly. The saturated ring analogs can also be used. Forexample, 4-benzyl piperidine can be alkylated with the urea mesylate 185(Scheme 30) to give corresponding cyclohexyl derivative 186.

As shown in Scheme 27, 4-benzyl piperidine can also be N-alkylated withthe phenacyl bromide 170 to give the nitro ketone 171. The nitro groupof 171 is then reduced using catalytic hydrogenation to give thecorresponding aniline 172. The aniline 172 can be reacted with theappropriate isocyanates to give the ketone urea 173. The ketone of 173can be reduced with NaBH₄ to give the alcohol 174.

Alternatively, the epoxide 175 (R¹⁴═H) can be opened with the 4-benzylpiperidine to give the corresponding nitro benzyl alcohol which ishydrogenated to give the aniline alcohol 176. The aniline 176 may betreated with various isocyanates to give the urea alcohols 174.

The 4-benzyl piperidine can also be N-alkylated with 3-cyanobenzylbromide (177, Scheme 28) to give the cyano analog 178. The cyano groupis reduced using Raney nickel to give the corresponding benzyl amine179. Treatment of 179 with isocyanates gives the urea 180.

As shown in Scheme 29, treatment of 3-cyano aniline withphenylisocyanate gives the urea 182. The cyano group of 182 is convertedto the imidate 183 by HCl/ethanol. Reaction with 4-benzyl piperidine inethanol then gives the amidine 184.

The saturated ring analogs can also be synthesized using analogousprocedures as outlined in Schemes 30 and 31. For example, 4-benzylpiperidine can be alkylated with the urea mesylate 185 (Scheme 29) togive corresponding cyclohexyl derivative 186. Alternatively, startingwith the enantiomerically pure amino alcohol 187 [J. Am. Chem. Soc.1996, 118, 5502-5503 and references therein] one can protect thenitrogen to give the N-Cbz alcohol 188. Swern oxidation of the alcoholgives the aldehyde 189. Reductive amination with piperidine analogsgives the cyclohexyl methyl-1-piperidinyl analogue 190. The Cbz group isremoved by catalytic hydrogenation to give the free amine 191, which istreated with a phenylisocyanate to give the desired urea analogue 192.Several examples using these synthetic methods are listed in Table 3aand Table 3.1.

The following examples were synthesized using the methods outlined inSchemes 26-31a. These examples are meant to be illustrative of thepresent invention, and are not to be limiting thereof.

CCR3-Receptor Binding Protocol

Millipore filter plates (#MABVN1250) are treated with 5 μg/ml protaminein phosphate buffered saline, pH 7.2, for ten minutes at roomtemperature. Plates are washed three times with phosphate bufferedsaline and incubated with phosphate buffered saline for thirty minutesat room temperature. For binding, 50 μl of binding buffer (0.5% bovineserum albumen, 20 mM HEPES buffer and 5 mM magnesium chloride in RPMI1640 media) with or without a test concentration of a compound presentat a known concentration is combined with 50 μl of 125-I labeled humaneotaxin (to give a final concentration of 150 pM radioligand) and 50 gof cell suspension in binding buffer containing 5×10⁵ total cells. Cellsused for such binding assays can include cell lines transfected with agene expressing CCR3 such as that described by Daugherty et al. (1996),isolated human eosinophils such as described by Hansel et al. (1991) orthe AML14.3D10 cell line after differentiation with butyric acid asdescribed by Tiffany et al. (1998). The mixture of compound, cells andradioligand are incubated at room temperature for thirty minutes. Platesare placed onto a vacuum manifold, vacuum applied, and plates washedthree times with binding buffer with 0.5M NaCl added. The plastic skirtis removed from the plate, the plate allowed to air dry, the wells punchout and CPM counted. The percent inhibition of binding is calculatedusing the total count obtained in the absence of any competing compoundor chemokine ligand and the background binding determined by addition of100 nM eotaxin in place of the test compound.

The utility of the compounds in accordance with the present invention asinhibitors of the migration of eosinophils or cell lines expressing thechemokine receptors may be demonstrated by methodology known in the art,such as the chemotaxis assay disclosed by Bacon et al., Brit. J.Pharmacol., 95, 966-974 (1988). In particular, the compound of thepresent invention have activity in inhibition of the migration ofeosinophils in the aforementioned assays. As used herein, “activity” isintended to mean a compound demonstrating an IC50 of 10 μM or lower inconcentration when measured in the aforementioned assays. Such a resultis indicative of the intrinsic activity of the compounds as modulatorsof chemokine receptor activity. A human eosinophil chemotaxis assayprotocol is described below.

Human Eosinohil Chemotaxis Assay

Neuroprobe MBA96 96-well chemotaxis chambers with Neuroprobepolyvinylpyrrolidone-free polycarbonate PFD5 5-micron filters in placeare warmed in a 37° C. incubator prior to assay. Freshly isolated humaneosinophils, isolated according to a method such as that described byHansel et al. (1991), are suspended in RPMI 1640 with 0.1% bovine serumalbumin at 1×10⁶ cells/ml and warmed in a 37° C. incubator prior toassay. A 20 nM solution of human eotaxin in RPMI 1640 with 0.1% bovineserum albumin is warmed in a 37° C. incubator prior to assay. Theeosinophil suspension and the 20 nM eotaxin solution are each mixed 1:1with prewarmed RPMI 1640 with 0.1% bovine serum albumin with or withouta dilution of a test compound that is at two fold the desired finalconcentration. These mixtures are warmed in a 37° C. incubator prior toassay. The filter is separated from the prewarmed Neuroprobe chemotaxischamber and the eotaxin/compound mixture is placed into a PolyfiltronicsMPC 96 well plate that has been placed in the bottom part of the NeuroProbe chemotaxis chamber. The approximate volume is 370 microliters andthere should be a positive meniscus after dispensing. The filter isreplaced above the 96 well plate, the rubber gasket is attached to thebottom of the upper chamber, and the chamber assembled. A 200 μl volumeof the cell suspension/compound mixture is added to the appropriatewells of the upper chamber. The upper chamber is covered with a platesealer, and the assembled unit placed in a 37° C. incubator for 45minutes. After incubation, the plate sealer is removed and all remainingcell suspension is aspirated off. The chamber is disassembled and, whileholding the filter by the sides at a 90-degree angle, unmigrated cellsare washed away using a gentle stream of phosphate buffered salinedispensed from a squirt bottle and then the filter wiped with a rubbertipped squeegee. The filter is allowed to completely dry and immersedcompletely in Wright Giemsa stain for 30-45 seconds. The filter isrinsed with distilled water for 7 minutes, rinsed once with waterbriefly, and allowed to dry. Migrated cells are enumerated bymicroscopy.

Mammalian chemokine receptors provide a target for interfering with orpromoting immune cell function in a mammal, such as a human. Compoundsthat inhibit or promote chemokine receptor function are particularlyuseful for modulating immune cell function for therapeutic purposes.Accordingly, the present invention is directed to compounds which areuseful in the prevention and/or treatment of a wide variety ofinflammatory, infectious, and immunoregulatory disorders and diseases,including asthma and allergic diseases, infection by pathogenic microbes(which, by definition, includes viruses), as well as autoimmunepathologies such as the rheumatoid arthritis and atherosclerosis.

For example, an instant compound which inhibits one or more functions ofa mammalian chemokine receptor (e.g., a human chemokine receptor) may beadministered to inhibit (i.e., reduce or prevent) inflammation orinfectious disease. As a result, one or more inflammatory process, suchas leukocyte emigration, adhesion, chemotaxis, exocytosis (e.g., ofenzymes, histamine) or inflammatory mediator release, is inhibited. Forexample, eosinophilic infiltration to inflammatory sites (e.g., inasthma or allergic rhinitis) can be inhibited according to the presentmethod. In particular, the compound of the following examples hasactivity in blocking the migration of cells expressing the CCR-3receptor using the appropriate chemokines in the aforementioned assays.As used herein, “activity” is intended to mean a compound demonstratingan IC50 of 10 μM or lower in concentration when measured in theaforementioned assays. Such a result is also indicative of the intrinsicactivity of the compounds as modulators of chemokine receptor activity.

Similarly, an instant compound which promotes one or more functions ofthe mammalian chemokine receptor (e.g., a human chemokine) asadministered to stimulate (induce or enhance) an immune or inflammatoryresponse, such as leukocyte emigration, adhesion, chemotaxis, exocytosis(e.g., of enzymes, histamine) or inflammatory mediator release,resulting in the beneficial stimulation of inflammatory processes. Forexample, eosinophils can be recruited to combat parasitic infections. Inaddition, treatment of the aforementioned inflammatory, allergic andautoimmune diseases can also be contemplated for an instant compoundwhich promotes one or more functions of the mammalian chemokine receptorif one contemplates the delivery of sufficient compound to cause theloss of receptor expression on cells through the induction of chemokinereceptor internalization or the delivery of compound in a manner thatresults in the misdirection of the migration of cells.

In addition to primates, such as humans, a variety of other mammals canbe treated according to the method of the present invention. Forinstance, mammals, including but not limited to, cows, sheep, goats,horses, dogs, cats, guinea pigs, rats or other bovine, ovine, equine,canine, feline, rodent or murine species can be treated. However, themethod can also be practiced in other species, such as avian species.The subject treated in the methods above is a mammal, male or female, inwhom modulation of chemokine receptor activity is desired. “Modulation”as used herein is intended to encompass antagonism, agonism, partialantagonism and/or partial agonism.

Diseases or conditions of human or other species which can be treatedwith inhibitors of chemokine receptor function, include, but are notlimited to: inflammatory or allergic diseases and conditions, includingrespiratory allergic diseases such as asthma, allergic rhinitis,hypersensitivity lung diseases, hypersensitivity pneumonitis,eosinophilic cellulitis (e.g., Well's syndrome), eosinophilic pneumonias(e.g., Loeffler's syndrome, chronic eosinophilic pneumonia),eosinophilic fasciitis (e.g., Shulman's syndrome), delayed-typehypersensitivity, interstitial lung diseases (ILD) (e.g., idiopathicpulmonary fibrosis, or ILD associated with rheumatoid arthritis,systemic lupus erythematosus, ankylosing spondylitis, systemicsclerosis, Sjogren's syndrome, polymyositis or dermatomyositis);systemic anaphylaxis or hypersensitivity responses, drug allergies(e.g., to penicillin, cephalosporins), eosinophilia-myalgia syndrome dueto the ingestion of contaminated tryptophan, insect sting allergies;autoimmune diseases, such as rheumatoid arthritis, psoriatic arthritis,multiple sclerosis, systemic lupus erythematosus, myasthenia gravis,juvenile onset diabetes; glomerulonephritis, autoimmune thyroiditis,Behcet's disease; graft rejection (e.g., in transplantation), includingallograft rejection or graft-versus-host disease; inflammatory boweldiseases, such as Crohn's disease and ulcerative colitis;spondyloarthropathies; scleroderma; psoriasis (including T-cell mediatedpsoriasis) and inflammatory dermatoses such as an dermatitis, eczema,atopic dermatitis, allergic contact dermatitis, urticaria; vasculitis(e.g., necrotizing, cutaneous, and hypersensitivity vasculitis);eosinophilic myositis, eosinophilic fasciitis; cancers with leukocyteinfiltration of the skin or organs. Other diseases or conditions inwhich undesirable inflammatory responses are to be inhibited can betreated, including, but not limited to, reperfusion injury,atherosclerosis, certain hematologic malignancies, cytokine-inducedtoxicity (e.g., septic shock, endotoxic shock), polymyositis,dermatomyositis.

Combinations of a compound of the present invention and otheractive ingredients will generally also be within the aforementionedrange, but in each case, an effective dose of each active ingredientshould be used.

The compounds are administered to a mammal in a therapeuticallyeffective amount. By “therapeutically effective amount” it is meant anamount of a compound of Formula I that, when administered alone or incombination with an additional therapeutic agent to a mammal, iseffective to prevent or ameliorate the thromboembolic disease conditionor the progression of the disease.

Dosage and Formulation

The compounds of this invention can be administered in such oral dosageforms as tablets, capsules (each of which includes sustained release ortimed release formulations), pills, powders, granules, elixirs,tinctures, suspensions, syrups, and emulsions. They may also beadministered in intravenous (bolus or infusion), intraperitoneal,subcutaneous, or intramuscular form, all using dosage forms well knownto those of ordinary skill in the pharmaceutical arts. They can beadministered alone, but generally will be administered with apharmaceutical carrier selected on the basis of the chosen route ofadministration and standard pharmaceutical practice.

The dosage regimen for the compounds of the present invention will, ofcourse, vary depending upon known factors, such as the pharmacodynamiccharacteristics of the particular agent and its mode and route ofadministration; the species, age, sex, health, medical condition, andweight of the recipient; the nature and extent of the symptoms; the kindof concurrent treatment; the frequency of treatment; the route ofadministration, the renal and hepatic function of the patient,and theeffect desired. A physician or veterinarian can determine and prescribethe effective amount of the drug required to prevent, counter, or arrestthe progress of the thromboembolic disorder.

By way of general guidance, the daily oral dosage of each activeingredient, when used for the indicated effects, will range betweenabout 0.001 to 1000 mg/kg of body weight, preferably between about 0.01to 100 mg/kg of body weight per day, and most preferably between about1.0 to 20 mg/kg/day. Intravenously, the most preferred doses will rangefrom about 1 to about 10 mg/kg/minute during a constant rate infusion.Compounds of this invention may be administered in a single daily dose,or the total daily dosage may be administered in divided doses of two,three, or four times daily.

Compounds of this invention can be administered in intranasal form viatopical use of suitable intranasal vehicles, or via transdermal routes,using transdermal skin patches. When administered in the form of atransdermal delivery system, the dosage administration will, of course,be continuous rather than intermittent throughout the dosage regimen.

The compounds are typically administered in admixture with suitablepharmaceutical diluents, excipients, or carriers (collectively referredto herein as pharmaceutical carriers) suitably selected with respect tothe intended form of administration, that is, oral tablets, capsules,elixirs, syrups and the like, and consistent with conventionalpharmaceutical practices.

For instance, for oral administration in the form of a tablet orcapsule, the active drug component can be combined with an oral,non-toxic, pharmaceutically acceptable, inert carrier such as lactose,starch, sucrose, glucose, methyl cellulose, magnesium stearate,dicalcium phosphate, calcium sulfate, mannitol, sorbitol and the like;for oral administration in liquid form, the oral drug components can becombined with any oral, non-toxic, pharmaceutically acceptable inertcarrier such as ethanol, glycerol, water, and the like. Moreover, whendesired or necessary, suitable binders, lubricants, disintegratingagents, and coloring agents can also be incorporated into the mixture.Suitable binders include starch, gelatin, natural sugars such as glucoseor beta-lactose, corn sweeteners, natural and synthetic gums such asacacia, tragacanth, or sodium alginate, carboxymethylcellulose,polyethylene glycol, waxes, and the like. Lubricants used in thesedosage forms include sodium oleate, sodium stearate, magnesium stearate,sodium benzoate, sodium acetate, sodium chloride, and the like.Disintegrators include, without limitation, starch, methyl cellulose,agar, bentonite, xanthan gum, and the like.

The compounds of the present invention can also be administered in theform of liposome delivery systems, such as small unilamellar vesicles,large unilamellar vesicles, and multilamellar vesicles. Liposomes can beformed from a variety of phospholipids, such as cholesterol,stearylamine, or phosphatidylcholines.

Compounds of the present invention may also be coupled with solublepolymers as targetable drug carriers. Such polymers can includepolyvinylpyrrolidone, pyran copolymer,polyhydroxypropylmethacrylamide-phenol,polyhydroxyethylaspartamidephenol, or polyethyleneoxidepolylysinesubstituted with palmitoyl residues. Furthermore, the compounds of thepresent invention may be coupled to a class of biodegradable polymersuseful in achieving controlled release of a drug, for example,polylactic acid, polyglycolic acid, copolymers of polylactic andpolyglycolic acid, polyepsilon caprolactone, polyhydroxy butyric acid,polyorthoesters, polyacetals, polydihydropyrans, polycyanoacylates, andcrosslinked or amphipathic block copolymers of hydrogels.

Dosage forms (pharmaceutical compositions) suitable for administrationmay contain from about 1 milligram to about 100 milligrams of activeingredient per dosage unit. In these pharmaceutical compositions theactive ingredient will ordinarily be present in an amount of about0.5-95% by weight based on the total weight of the composition.

Gelatin capsules may contain the active ingredient and powderedcarriers, such as lactose, starch, cellulose derivatives, magnesiumstearate, stearic acid, and the like. Similar diluents can be used tomake compressed tablets. Both tablets and capsules can be manufacturedas sustained release products to provide for continuous release ofmedication over a period of hours. Compressed tablets can be sugarcoated or film coated to mask any unpleasant taste and protect thetablet from the atmosphere, or enteric coated for selectivedisintegration in the gastrointestinal tract.

Liquid dosage forms for oral administration can contain coloring andflavoring to increase patient acceptance.

In general, water, a suitable oil, saline, aqueous dextrose (glucose),and related sugar solutions and glycols such as propylene glycol orpolyethylene glycols are suitable carriers for parenteral solutions.Solutions for parenteral administration preferably contain a watersoluble salt of the active ingredient, suitable stabilizing agents, andif necessary, buffer substances. Antioxidizing agents such as sodiumbisulfite, sodium sulfite, or ascorbic acid, either alone or combined,are suitable stabilizing agents. Also used are citric acid and its saltsand sodium EDTA. In addition, parenteral solutions can containpreservatives, such as benzalkonium chloride, methyl- or propyl-paraben,and chlorobutanol.

Suitable pharmaceutical carriers are described in Remington'sPharmaceutical Sciences, Mack Publishing Company, a standard referencetext in this field.

Representative useful pharmaceutical dosage-forms for administration ofthe compounds of this invention can be illustrated as follows:

Capsules

A large number of unit capsules can be prepared by filling standardtwo-piece hard gelatin capsules each with 100 milligrams of powderedactive ingredient, 150 milligrams of lactose, 50 milligrams ofcellulose, and 6 milligrams magnesium stearate.

Soft Gelatin Capsules

A mixture of active ingredient in a digestable oil such as soybean oil,cottonseed oil or olive oil may be prepared and injected by means of apositive displacement pump into gelatin to form soft gelatin capsulescontaining 100 milligrams of the active ingredient. The capsules shouldbe washed and dried.

Tablets

Tablets may be prepared by conventional procedures so that the dosageunit is 100 milligrams of active ingredient, 0.2 milligrams of colloidalsilicon dioxide, 5 milligrams of magnesium stearate, 275 milligrams ofmicrocrystalline cellulose, 11 milligrams of starch and 98.8 milligramsof lactose. Appropriate coatings may be applied to increase palatabilityor delay absorption.

Injectable

A parenteral composition suitable for administration by injection may beprepared by stirring 1.5% by weight of active ingredient in 10% byvolume propylene glycol and water. The solution should be made isotonicwith sodium chloride and sterilized.

Suspension

An aqueous suspension can be prepared for oral administration so thateach 5 mL contain 100 mg of finely divided active ingredient, 200 mg ofsodium carboxymethyl cellulose, 5 mg of sodium benzoate, 1.0 g ofsorbitol solution, U.S.P., and 0.025 mL of vanillin.

Where the compounds of this invention are combined with otheranticoagulant agents, for example, a daily dosage may be about 0.1 to100 milligrams of the compound of Formula I and about 1 to 7.5milligrams of the second anticoagulant, per kilogram of patient bodyweight. For a tablet dosage form, the compounds of this inventiongenerally may be present in an amount of about 5 to 10 milligrams perdosage unit, and the second anti-coagulant in an amount of about 1 to 5milligrams per dosage unit.

Where two or more of the foregoing second therapeutic agents areadministered with the compound of Formula I, generally the amount ofeach component in a typical daily dosage and typical dosage form may bereduced relative to the usual dosage of the agent when administeredalone, in view of the additive or synergistic effect of the therapeuticagents when administered in combination.

Particularly when provided as a single dosage unit, the potential existsfor a chemical interaction between the combined active ingredients. Forthis reason, when the compound of Formula I and a second therapeuticagent are combined in a single dosage unit they are formulated such thatalthough the active ingredients are combined in a single dosage unit,the physical contact between the active ingredients is minimized (thatis, reduced). For example, one active ingredient may be enteric coated.By enteric coating one of the active ingredients, it is possible notonly to minimize the contact between the combined active ingredients,but also, it is possible to control the release of one of thesecomponents in the gastrointestinal tract such that one of thesecomponents is not released in the stomach but rather is released in theintestines. One of the active ingredients may also be coated with amaterial which effects a sustained-release throughout thegastrointestinal tract and also serves to minimize physical contactbetween the combined active ingredients. Furthermore, thesustained-released component can be additionally enteric coated suchthat the release of this component occurs only in the intestine. Stillanother approach would involve the formulation of a combination productin which the one component is coated with a sustained and/or entericrelease polymer, and the other component is also coated with a polymersuch as a low-viscosity grade of hydroxypropyl methylcellulose (HPMC) orother appropriate materials as known in the art, in order to furtherseparate the active components. The polymer coating serves to form anadditional barrier to interaction with the other component.

These as well as other ways of minimizing contact between the componentsof combination products of the present invention, whether administeredin a single dosage form or administered in separate forms but at thesame time by the same manner, will be readily apparent to those skilledin the art, once armed with the present disclosure.

Obviously, numerous modifications and variations of the presentinvention are possible in light of the above teachings. It is thereforeto be understood that within the scope of the appended claims, theinvention may be practiced otherwise that as specifically describedherein.
